tool that you can trace a recursive function?
or in other words a tool, program, etc, where graphicaly you can see the workflow of recursion? have somebody a link for this great tool(if exists).
or give me some tips how can i follow a recursive function steps

>but sometimes i get lost where the execution of the program goes
Print it as it goes, litter your code with print statements, and draw the structure on paper. Paper is very important when working with complex data structures. Most of the time you simply cannot get everything in your head and paper is a good place to put down what you know as well as what you expect so that you can compare with what is.

best advice ever... I used to think I could do it all in my head, but after learning inheritance and polymorphism and using them in loops nested to the level of 5 along with recursive functions, you really lose your way... then you change one little think and if fcks with your entire program...
